#7 Hughie Ferguson (1898-1930)
Labelled for his modesty and sense of fair play striker ever to have played in the history of the Scottish Premier League, Hugh “Hughie” Ferguson was born on 2 March 1898.
Being only one of the seven men in the entire history of football and the Scottish Football Leagues to have achieved the mark of 350 or more league goals, Ferguson finished his career with an average of 0.85 goals per game.
Scoring 285 goals for Motherwell FC, Ferguson departed for South Wales where he joined Cardiff City. He scored 77 goals in 117 appearances for the Blue Birds, winning the FA Cup and FA Community Shield in 1927 and the Welsh Cup in 1928.
Returning to Scotland with Dundee in 1929 for a fee of £500, Ferguson scored just two goals in 17 matches for the club before being left out of the side due to injury and lack of form.
Unable to find his form, Ferguson went into depression and on 9 January 1930, the 31-year-old centre-forward committed suicide by gassing himself at Dens Park after a training session.
